of soh cah toa and score that goal-a

WHO: Study/Tutoring Club + Game Club!
WHAT: Mingle Time, Babey!
WHEN: Throughout December
WHERE: Rooms 3-A and 1-B respectively!
WHY: Wouldn't you like to know, weather boy
Warnings: TBA


Hey guys! Have a combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell Study Club and Game Club mingle! This is just to help me keep everything mainly in one spot for the most part, since Senku is in charge of both clubs! But, of course there's quite a few things happening in both clubs:

STUDY/TUTORING CLUB
With Finals Week looming ever closer, there's definitely a big boom in students showing up for this club in specific! Everyone's got their own ways of cramming for Finals, so maybe going through your notes a few times with fellow students and study buddies might help you get a leg up on your grades, and that test anxiety! Don't worry- you're not alone in this.

GAME CLUB
Anyone like TTRPGs? Well, you're in luck! Game Club is looking for a few students interested in being part of a Dungeons and Dragons campaign! Who's the DM? Why, none other than club president Senku himself! He's mostly looking for interest before diving too deep into campaign details just yet, but let him know if you'd be down for it!

I will say, Game Club will NOT meet during Finals Week itself, just to make sure people focus more on studying and getting those good grades! So please make sure that prompts don't take place during the 20th-24th! It'll come back a few days after Christmas just to let everyone breathe after that stressful week.

With all of that out of the way, please feel free to make your own posts and top-levels! Make sure to specify what club it's for too so people don't get too confused! Thanks!!!

( sidney glances up, before beckoning the girl over. )

Over here. I'm an English teacher. My name is Sidney Wolfe.

( call him as you will, he won't mind generally. but satou's probably seen him around before. he sets down the clipboard with a half-scored worksheet down to clear a space out around him for her to sit and do her work. though sidney speaks stoically, and may be a little intimidating with his scarred eye and one arm, he's also gentle as he starts to prod at her experience a little- )

Can you tell me what you consider your strong points and weak points are? Even if it's just one strong point, that'll help. Alright?

[An English teacher..! She has seen him around, but she's never taken the time to talk to him. She's been trying to BS her way into a smart kid reputation and knows that one actual word from her mouth might topple that tower.

But she really needs the help... Better to ask a teacher than a student, right? Plus, this kind of confession doesn't seem dumb. Just honest;]


Um. I never actually took many exams in my last... "life." I don't know what a literature exam will even look like.

( huh- how was her education before this...? of course, maybe that's for the better, actually. standardized tests were a menace after all. )

It will generally depend on the teacher themselves. I can draw up some mock quizzes for you, if you'd like.

( after they cover some things first, of course. )

Is that okay? It's not troublesome..?

[Or cheating, she worries. Satou may not know what to expect in the exam, but she still plans to ace it. She is too competitive for her own good sometimes.]

I would appreciate it. Even if the circumstances are weird, I'd like to do well in school. [...] Ah- Excuse me! I'm Satou Kuroneko.

Not at all. Mock exams are good study tools, so you know what sort of questions to expect and prepare for. Think of it as a particularly difficult worksheet packet, if it helps.

( carefully, sidney rifles through some of the quizzes... grammar, reading comprehension, literary analysis and more... so much to cover in such a short time. )

Good to meet you. Let me know if I need to go over anything again. Do you have something you want to start on specifically?

( other than the mock test, that is- she didn't list any points at all, given her general inexperience with exams, so maybe it'll be better to let her pick where to begin. )

Uh...

[Satou can think of quite a few things that she's been struggling with, but;]

I used to get teased a lot for my bad grammar... It's so weird. As long as I get the point across, aren't I doing well enough?

That sort of thing is a classist maneuver, I've found. But it's still required for certain levels of professionalism, and as such somewhat of a requirement.

( so grammar... he can whip up some worksheets for that, yeah. already, sidney pulls over a notebook to write down ideas- and if this proves helpful, he can provide some more as extra credit options. )

Really? I was told it was because I wasn't very refined. [Which is exactly what he said about it being classist. But for Satou, it felt like she was being told that she was a bad person.

She looks curiously at the notebook.]


Have there been many other students who need help?
